With the election coming up, I suspect I'll have ample opportunity to rant and rave over the next year. We'll see if my enthusiasm for letting everyone know exactly why I'm right about this and that will continue. If it does, I might hit 50000 posts.

Assuming 5 minutes per post that's 250,000 minutes or 41.66.67 hours or 173.61 days wasted in recreational posting since I joined RF.

Given @Revoltingest 's posting record of over 3 times that number, he's at about 1 2/3 years wasted posting here. Of course he might take way less than 5 minutes per post in which case let's call it a year wasted posting here.

If everyone were like him, the world would not end with a bang but with a winning post in the winning thread. Who needs birth control, after all, when RF is here not to mention all the other time sinks on the internet.

I once wrote a post which took over 5 minutes.
Then the utter waste of that dawned on me.
Now 1 minute is me max. 5 seconds is average.

'Premium' youtube won't filter out videos that have price tags. More and more priced videos come up in search results, meaning its turning into Hulu.

The streaming services have been allowing people to binge shows, but that will change, too. We have all been the beneficiaries of the early price wars and early battles to gain audiences and establish brands. That binging ability, however, represents extra utility for consumers of videos - utility that we are technically not being charged for, yet... Eventually that will not be the case.

Streaming is getting too expensive. I remember people cut the cable cord when cable got too expensive. Is it time to cut the ethernet cord? Lol.

The whole dang place smells like a very badly backed up sewer or being down wind from a bunch of elephant seals.... makes me wonder if @Revoltingest isn’t here somewhere with his arm in a toilet
